February comics / cómics de febrero

On Sunday, because of the coronavirus situation, all bars and clubs were closed here in California, all restaurants switched to take out or delivery only, Monday they announced a complete lockdown in 6 counties in the Bay Area. I was freaking out because I knew they would have a lockdown and shelter in place procedure in Davis, where I live. Most shelves are empty in the supermarkets. So, of course, for the past few days I’ve been thinking if it’s necessary or not to keep posting as usual. In the end, of course, is not a question of what is necessary but rather a question of what will make me, and you and all of us feel as if we still had a normal routine to cling to. So let’s talk about comics for a bit. I was pleasantly surprised by the first issue of Alienated, the conclusion of Conan and American Gods was quite good. I enjoyed reading The Dollhouse and Legion of Super-Heroes but my favorite comic of the month was Marvels X #2. And now, without further ado, here are February comics as per solicitations: 

ALIENATED #1
(W) Simon Spurrier (A/CA) Chris Wildgoose. Acclaimed writer Simon Spurrier (John Constantine Hellblazer, Coda) and artist Chris Wildgoose (Batgirl, Batman: Nightwalker) present a subversive coming-of-age story about about having all the power to change the world but the unready hands to truly wield it. Three teenagers, each an outcast in their own way, stumble upon an unearthly entity as it's born. As they bond over this shared secret and the creature's incredible abilities, it becomes clear to the teenagers that their cute little pet is a super-predator in the making - and it's in need of prey. Guided by the best intentions at first, the teens' decisions soon become corrupted by adolescent desires, small town jealousies, and internal rivalries, sending them into a catastrophic spiral of their own making.

AMERICAN GODS #9
(W) Neil Gaiman (A) P. Craig Russell & Various (CA) Glenn Fabry. In this dramatic conclusion to the award-winning American Gods series, Shadow says his goodbyes and makes peace with a world that has changed forever.

DOLLHOUSE #4
(W) Mike Carey (A) Peter Gross, Vince Locke (CA) Jay Anacleto. Alice's worst nightmare has come true: the Dollhouse has returned…and if it can't have her, it'll settle for her daughter! And as horrible as her prior experiences with the House have been, they're nothing compared to what it's been able to come up with after 20 years of waiting…

LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES #4
(W) Brian Michael Bendis (A/CA) Ryan Sook, Travis Moore. The secret origin of the Legion of Super-Heroes revealed! Exactly how did this ragtag group of idealistic, super-powered teens from all across the galaxy find each other? What pulls them and keeps them together? Another gorgeous issue of DC's future superstars also reveals clues to how Aquaman's lost trident may be the key to Earth's future and survival!

MARVELS X #2
(W) Alex Ross, Jim Krueger (A) Well-Bee (CA) Alex Ross. David's arrival in New York doesn't bring the safety he had hoped it would. And while he does indeed find some heroes, he also finds that they don't know what to do in a world where everyone they ever fought to protect now wants only to blame them for the hell the world has transformed into. Alex Ross, Jim Krueger and Well-Bee continue the amazing prequel to the EARTH X trilogy. Rated T

X-MEN/FANTASTIC FOUR #1 

(W) Chip Zdarsky (A/CA) Terry Dodson. KRAKOA. Every mutant on Earth lives there … except for one. But now it's time for FRANKLIN RICHARDS to come home. It's the X-MEN VS. the FANTASTIC FOUR and nothing will ever be the same. Rated T+

El domingo, debido a la situación del coronavirus, todos los bares y clubes se cerraron aquí en California, todos los restaurantes funcionan solamente para llevar comida pero no para quedarse ahí, el lunes anunciaron un cierre total en 6 condados del Bay Area. Me preocupé porque sabía que tendrían un procedimiento de cuarentena y refugio en Davis, donde vivo. La mayoría de los estantes están vacíos en los supermercados. Entonces, por supuesto, durante los últimos días he estado pensando si es necesario o no seguir con el blog como de costumbre. Al final, por supuesto, no se trata de lo que es necesario, sino de lo que me hará a mí, y a ustedes y a todos nosotros sentirnos como si todavía tuviésemos una rutina normal a la que aferrarnos. Así que hablemos de cómics por un momento. Me sorprendió gratamente el primer número de Alienated, la conclusión de Conan y American Gods fueron bastante buena. Disfruté leyendo The Dollhouse y Legion of Super-Heroes, pero mi cómic favorito del mes fue Marvels X # 2. Y ahora, sin más preámbulos, ahí van los cómics de febrero:

ALIENATED # 1
Una historia subversiva sobre jóvenes que anhelan todo el poder para cambiar el mundo y que tienen manos poco preparadas para realmente manejarlo.

A medida que se unen sobre este secreto compartido y las increíbles habilidades de la criatura, se hace evidente para los adolescentes que su linda y pequeña mascota es un súper depredador en desarrollo, y necesita presas. Guiados por las mejores intenciones al principio, las decisiones de los adolescentes pronto se corrompen por sus deseos, celos y rivalidades internas, lo que los lleva a una espiral catastrófica de su propia creación.

December Comics / Cómics de diciembre

During the holidays I had the chance to read some amazing comics like Providence, 2000 AD or trade paperbacks like Captain Britain (which includes part of Alan Moore’s run) or the final two volumes of Yoshiyuki Sadamoto’s magnum opus, Neon Genesis Evangelion, which took him almost 20 years to complete.

April Comic Books / Cómics de abril

April sure was a month devoted mostly to Image Comics. And how could it be otherwise with titles like The Wicked + The Divine (nominated for the Eisner Awards), Velvet (one of Ed Brubaker’s best works with exquisite art by Steve Epting), The Autumlands: Tooth & Claw (winner of the 2014 Arion's Achievement Award for Best New Series) and Kirkman’s Invincible (such an enjoyable title, and much better than The Walking Dead, which I stopped reading a long time ago). However, probably the best issue of the month was Jupiter’s Circle # 1 by Mark Millar (I must write a review about it). And now, without further ado, here are April comics as per solicitations:

ALL NEW X-FACTOR #14
(W) Peter David (A) Carmine Di Giandomenico (CA) Jared K. Fletcher, Kris Anka • Quicksilver is reunited with his daughter, Luna... • ...But THE INHUMANS are not too happy about it! • PLUS: could Warlock make a move on Danger?

AUTUMNLANDS TOOTH & CLAW #5 
(W) Kurt Busiek (A/CA) Ben Dewey. The conspirators make their move, but the Champion has a few surprises for them.

CHRONONAUTS #2 (MR)
(W) MARK MILLAR (A/CA) SEAN GORDON MURPHY. Corbin Quinn and Danny Reilly have become the world's first time travelers - but not all goes according to plan when the two go rogue in their own era-hopping adventure! With the world watching, the buddies get mixed up in an eon's worth of sticky situations while some of history's scariest villains - and their bosses back in the present day - are determined to track them down!

CROSSED PLUS 100 #4 American History X Wrap Cvr (MR)
As the layers of the mystery begin to unravel, Future Taylor goes to compare notes with an archivist from another settlement. All the evidence points to an impossible conclusion. One that seems so radical, Future has to search out the final answers on her own. Alan Moore, the man who revolutionized the comics medium, returns to monthly comics and puts his unique stamp upon the Crossed universe, as he and artist Gabriel Andrade paint a vivid picture of the future 100 years after the outbreak! This multi-layered story delivers a new brand of horror to Crossed fans at the hands of the scribe that redefined the comics medium. This masterwork is a self-contained whole new world; no prior knowledge of the Crossed series is needed. All the covers for the series have been planned out by Alan Moore, with the images enriching and expanding on the series. Clues and glimpses of what came before, and what might be, are found throughout the variant covers. American History X Wraparound - Each of these will depict a specific time in the past hundred years, showing how things have changed and offering a peek at some key events. Each cover will display the year in which it takes place to help build the full picture. Crossed Culture - These are all images of how the Crossed have changed the way they live. With few humans left to hunt, and the animal kingdom thriving with predators, even the thrill-driven Crossed have had to make adjustments to their lifestyle. Future Tense - Each cover is a homage to a famous work of science fiction, and each of those original works ties into themes of this series. New World Order Wraparound - These are not for the faint of heart or delicate of constitution. We can't even picture them in this catalog, they are visions of what an ideal all-Crossed world would be. If the madmen have their dreams come true, what would the everyday life look like® These covers are brutally intense images of true horror and may have scenes of torture, depravity, and nudity. These are clearly for adults only. Each copy of this edition will ship in a sealed polybag with a protective slip cover over the actual image to assure it can be racked in stores. The graphic pictured here is the slip cover only. Due to all these special protective measures this edition is strictly limited to initial orders. Also available with Retailer Incentive covers of Red Crossed and Design Sketch, showing the original works of series artist Gabriel Andrade. Don't miss out on the ultra-rare CGC Numbered Edition as well!

INVINCIBLE #118 
(W) Robert Kirkman (A/CA) Ryan Ottley. Invincible and Atom Eve set off on the adventure of a lifetime: PARENTHOOD! They've taken to the stars and left their troubles on Earth behind them. As things take a drastic turn for our heroes, you'll find yourself asking...is this book still about superheroes?

JUPITER'S CIRCLE #1 (MR)
(W) Mark Millar (A) Wilfredo Torres (C) Frank Quitely. The most celebrated superheroes in mid-century America seem to have it all-fame, riches, adoration-but tensions simmer beneath the glossy surface, threatening to crack open the secrets behind their public AND private exploits. Before the family dynasty in JUPITER'S LEGACY began, there was JUPITER'S CIRCLE-a story about a team whose personal dramas collide with super-powered spectacle!

As the exploration of vast structures on the surface of the asteroid Xibalba begins, more nightmarish secrets of a prehistoric cosmic war come crawling into the light.

VELVET #6 (MR)
(W) Ed Brubaker (A/CA) Steve Epting. THE SECOND ARC BEGINS HERE! Following the revelations at the end of issue 5, Velvet's quest for the truth and her innocence takes her right back to the heart of her own organization -- to London, where every move she makes is even more dangerous than the last!

WICKED & DIVINE #9 (MR)
It's time for a private audience with Ananke, she who has protected and judged the Pantheon for thousands of years. Yes, it's time for an interview... with an umpire. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Also: Baphomet being all goth and having a nice little mope.

Sin duda alguna, abril fue un mes dedicado casi íntegramente a Image Comics. Y cómo podría ser de otro modo con títulos como “The Wicked + The Divine” (nominado a los premios Eisner), “Velvet” (uno de los mejores trabajos de Ed Brubaker con exquisito arte de Steve Epting), “The Autumlands: Tooth & Claw” (ganador del Arion's Achievement Award a mejor nueva serie del 2014) e Invincible de Kirkman (colección que siempre he disfrutado, y superior a “The Walking Dead” que dejé de leer hace ya bastante tiempo). Sin embargo, probablemente el mejor número del mes fue Jupiter’s Circle # 1 de Mark Millar (debo dedicarle una reseña). Y ahora, sin mayores preámbulos, aquí están los cómics de abril:

ALL NEW X-FACTOR #14
QUICKSILVER se reúne con Luna desobedeciendo a los Inhumanos.

CROSSED PLUS 100 #4 (MR)
Las capas del misterio empiezan a revelarse, Taylor va a comparar notas con un archivista de otro asentamiento. Toda la evidencia apunta a una imposible conclusión. Una que parece tan radical que Taylor deberá buscar las respuestas finales por sí misma.

NAMELESS #3 (MR)
Cuando empieza la exploración de vastas estructuras de la superficie del asteroide XIBALBA, más temibles secretos de una guerra cósmica prehistórica salen a la luz. ¿Qué es lo que está enterrado en la inmensa red de túneles de XIBALBA? ¿Qué tipo de maldad yace allí?

VELVET #6 (MR)
La búsqueda de la verdad para probar su inocencia llevará a VELVET al corazón de su propia organización – a Londres. Y el peligro aumenta.

WICKED & DIVINE #9 (MR)
Es hora de una audiencia privada con ANANKE, la misma que ha protegido y juzgado al Panteón por miles de años. Sí, es tiempo de una entrevista con un árbitro. Sí, sí, sí. Además, BAPHOMET se vuelve gótico.

May comic books / cómics de mayo

It happens every year. My favorite FCBD book comes from Rebellion: it’s 2000AD. Am I losing impartiality? Is it because I grew up reading old 2000AD progs? I don’t know, the thing is that 2000AD FCBD 2014 was the best of the bunch. Epic (from Comix Tribe), however, was surprisingly good. May has also been a month for back issues, a chance to catch up on some of the All New Marvel Now series (the best has been Loki Agent of Asgard # 1, what an unforgettable first issue!). Certainly, Jason Aaron continues to surprise me with some of the best comics I've read lately: Thor God of Thunder and Wolverine & the X-Men. Both brilliant! Of  course, Miracleman continues to amaze me, and Mark Millar’s universe is still the best place to go. Starlight was terrific but if I had to choose my favorite comic book of the month the award would be a tie between MPH # 1 and 2000AD. A veritable British thrills overload!

Pasa cada año. Mi cómic favorito del Día del Cómic Gratuito es de Rebellion: 2000AD. ¿Estoy perdiendo imparcialidad? ¿O es porque crecí leyendo viejas historias de 2000AD? No lo sé, lo cierto es que el FCBD de 2014 de 2000AD fue el mejor. Epic (de Comix Tribe), no obstante, fue sorprendentemente bueno. Mayo también fue un mes de números atrasados, una oportunidad para ponerme al día con algunas de las nuevas series de Marvel (lo mejor ha sido Loki Agent of Asgard # 1, ¡un primer número inolvidable!). Ciertamente Jason Aaron continúa sorprendiéndome con algunos de los mejores cómics que he leído últimamente: "Thor God of Thunder" y "Wolverine & the X-Men". ¡Ambos brillantes! Desde luego, Miracleman continúa asombrándome, y el universo de Mark Millar sigue siendo el mejor destino para nuestras visitas. Starlight fue estupendo pero si tuviera que elegir el mejor cómic del mes, el premio sería un empate entre MPH # 1 y 2000AD. Una verdadera sobrecarga de emoción inglesa. Y ahora, sin mayores preámbulos, ahí van los cómics de mayo:

March comic books / cómics de marzo

So far this has been my favorite month of the year. So many great comics at the same time! Let’s start with two very good Avengers (Uncanny & Young) issues, and a very interesting first chapter for Judge Dredd Year One (which simply proves that you need a British writer to write about this British creation). Image’s Sex is another promising new series. Mike Carey’s arc about zombies in the Unwritten universe is some of the best stuff I’ve seen from Vertigo in quite a long time, really amazing. But this time the best comics don’t come from the United States, at least not directly. I cannot emphasize how much I have enjoyed reading the first 6 volumes of Neon Genesis Evagelion (which have been collected in two oversized volumes). But if I had to choose the best comic I’ve read not only in March but in the first trimester of 2013 it would be Judge Dredd Origins. It’s so awesome that I’m still trying to process the intensity of it all. Once I feel ready I’ll write a review about it. You can count on it. And without further ado here are March comics as per solicitations:

Hasta ahora este ha sido mi mes favorito del año. ¡Tantos cómics estupendos al mismo tiempo! Empecemos con dos muy buenos números de Avengers (Uncanny y Young) y un muy interesante primer capítulo de Judge Dredd: Year One (que simplemente demuestra que necesitas un escritor británico para escribir sobre esta creación británica). Sex de Image es otra prometedora nueva serie. El arco de Mike Carey sobre zombis en el universo de Unwritten es de lo mejor que he visto en Vertigo últimamente, realmente asombroso. Pero esta vez los mejores cómics no vienen de Estados Unidos, al menos no directamente. No puedo hacer énfasis en lo mucho que disfruté leyendo los primeros 6 volúmenes de Neon Genesis Evagelion (que han sido compilados en dos tomos extra grandes). Pero si tuviera que elegir el mejor cómic que he leído no sólo en marzo sino en el primer trimestre del 2013, sería Judge Dredd: Origins es tan genial que todavía estoy procesándolo. Cuando me sienta preparado, escribiré una reseña. Pueden contar con ello. Y sin mayores preámbulos aquí van los cómics de marzo:
